1
00:00:11,610 --> 00:00:15,834
Ben recognized the voice right away.

2
00:00:15,835 --> 00:00:20,668
It was Mog! There was a two-headed dog by his side.

3
00:00:20,669 --> 00:00:24,132
"What are you doing here?" Mog demanded.

4
00:00:24,133 --> 00:00:29,766
"I couldn't sleep," Ben said quickly. He landed in front of Mog.

5
00:00:29,767 --> 00:00:33,575
"I was just flying around Monsterville."

6
00:00:33,576 --> 00:00:37,832
"Just flying around?" Mog echoed.

7
00:00:37,833 --> 00:00:43,048
He narrowed his eyes and moved closer to Ben. "Winnie loves to fly.

8
00:00:43,049 --> 00:00:47,064
I bet you're looking for those two missing brooms to impress her!"

9
00:00:47,065 --> 00:00:51,080
Ben was surprised that Mog had guessed the truth so quickly.

10
00:00:51,081 --> 00:00:53,850
He backed away from the big monster.

11
00:00:53,851 --> 00:00:58,222
"No, I'm just flying around," he repeated.

12
00:00:58,223 --> 00:01:03,365
Suddenly Mog smiled. "I'm just kidding," he said.

13
00:01:03,366 --> 00:01:09,611
"I'll tell you a secret, but you have to promise not to tell anyone, not one single monster!"

14
00:01:09,612 --> 00:01:14,135
"Why is Mog being so friendly all of a sudden?" Ben thought.

15
00:01:14,136 --> 00:01:19,564
He was suspicious, but aloud he said, "I won't tell."

16
00:01:19,565 --> 00:01:26,048
"Come closer," said Mog. "I have to whisper so no one will hear."

17
00:01:26,049 --> 00:01:29,738
"But there's no one here but us," said Ben.

18
00:01:29,739 --> 00:01:33,754
"You never know," said Mog, glancing around.

19
00:01:33,755 --> 00:01:38,730
"There could be spies on either side of the fence."

20
00:01:38,731 --> 00:01:42,405
Ben hovered so he was at eye level with Mog.

21
00:01:42,406 --> 00:01:45,397
"Closer!" hissed Mog.

22
00:01:45,398 --> 00:01:47,564
Ben moved closer.

23
00:01:47,565 --> 00:01:52,191
"I've been looking for the missing brooms too," Mog whispered.

24
00:01:52,192 --> 00:01:55,072
"I think people are stealing them."

25
00:01:55,073 --> 00:02:00,452
"What?" Ben felt his eyes widen. "Why do you think that?"

26
00:02:00,453 --> 00:02:05,579
"I was sneaking around in People Place the other day," said Mog.

27
00:02:05,580 --> 00:02:09,103
"I saw two brooms on the roof of a house.

28
00:02:09,104 --> 00:02:16,436
I couldn't climb up to get them, but I could clearly see 'MA' on the handles."

29
00:02:16,437 --> 00:02:22,230
Ben peered at Mog in the moonlight. Was he telling the truth?

30
00:02:22,231 --> 00:02:26,436
"Why would people steal the brooms?" asked Ben.

31
00:02:26,437 --> 00:02:29,380
"And how could they make them fly?"

32
00:02:29,381 --> 00:02:34,973
"I don't know." Mog shrugged. "Maybe it's because the brooms are magic.

33
00:02:34,974 --> 00:02:38,491
The people are probably jealous and want to learn how to fly them.

34
00:02:38,492 --> 00:02:41,515
And that's why the brooms are crashing all over the place.

35
00:02:41,516 --> 00:02:44,947
The people don't know what they're doing."

36
00:02:44,948 --> 00:02:48,221
Ben still didn't trust Mog.

37
00:02:48,222 --> 00:02:52,532
"If people did steal the brooms, why did they put them on a roof?

38
00:02:52,533 --> 00:02:54,700
That doesn't make sense."

39
00:02:54,701 --> 00:02:59,744
Mog shrugged again. "They probably just thought it was a good hiding spot.

40
00:02:59,745 --> 00:03:04,892
After all, who would think to look up on a roof?"

41
00:03:04,893 --> 00:03:08,056
"That makes sense," said Ben.

42
00:03:08,057 --> 00:03:12,135
"So did you tell Mr. Freaky you saw the brooms?"

43
00:03:12,136 --> 00:03:18,956
"No," said Mog. "I didn't want to get in trouble for sneaking around People Place."

44
00:03:18,957 --> 00:03:24,885
He paused and seemed to think for a moment. "You're a ghost, though.

45
00:03:24,886 --> 00:03:28,616
You could easily fly into People Place and get the brooms back."

46
00:03:28,617 --> 00:03:34,879
Ben looked suspiciously at Mog. Could he really trust this monster?

47
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:41,569
"Listen," said Mog. "If we get those brooms back, we can put them in the broom closet.

48
00:03:41,570 --> 00:03:48,371
Then, as long as they don't disappear again, Mr. Freaky will probably change his mind about the Monster Mash dance.

49
00:03:48,372 --> 00:03:52,426
And you know Winnie will be happy."

50
00:03:52,427 --> 00:03:56,946
Ben thought about this. Mog might be telling the truth.

51
00:03:56,947 --> 00:04:02,887
Then again, Mog was probably lying. Maybe he wanted to get Ben in trouble.

52
00:04:02,888 --> 00:04:06,880
Mog certainly wouldn't want Winnie to feel grateful to Ben.

53
00:04:06,881 --> 00:04:13,149
Still, it couldn't hurt to fly over People Place just to see the brooms, could it?

54
00:04:13,150 --> 00:04:18,711
Finally Ben nodded. "Okay, I'll do it. Where's the house?"

55
00:04:18,712 --> 00:04:22,864
"Awesome," said Mog with a grin.

56
00:04:22,865 --> 00:04:27,163
"It's a big house on Main Street. It's only a few blocks from the fence.

57
00:04:27,164 --> 00:04:31,761
The house is yellow, and it has a tower. You can't miss it."

58
00:04:31,762 --> 00:04:38,588
Ben took a deep breath. "I'll be back soon."

59
00:04:38,589 --> 00:04:43,417
"I'll be waiting right here," whispered Mog as Ben flew off.

60
00:04:43,418 --> 00:04:50,640
Ben couldn't believe he was actually flying over the fence and into People Place.

61
00:04:50,641 --> 00:04:53,772
On the other side, he looked around.

62
00:04:53,773 --> 00:05:00,403
Without any people, the town looked a lot like Monsterville, with schools and stores and parks.

63
00:05:00,404 --> 00:05:04,836
Still, Ben knew he couldn't spend too much time looking around.

64
00:05:04,837 --> 00:05:08,433
If he got caught, he'd be in serious trouble.

65
00:05:08,434 --> 00:05:11,645
Ben flew a bit farther and found Main Street.

66
00:05:11,646 --> 00:05:15,840
It was lined with houses, and cars were parked along the street.

67
00:05:15,841 --> 00:05:19,162
He quickly spotted the yellow house with the tower.

68
00:05:19,163 --> 00:05:23,620
He flew over it, but he didn't see any brooms on the roof.

69
00:05:23,621 --> 00:05:27,089
"Mog definitely lied to me," thought Ben.

70
00:05:27,090 --> 00:05:30,405
There were no brooms from Monster Academy here.

71
00:05:30,406 --> 00:05:35,357
Ben was hovering outside a window when he noticed a young boy inside.

72
00:05:35,358 --> 00:05:41,628
The boy was fast asleep in bed, hugging a giant stuffed teddy bear almost as big as Ben.

73
00:05:41,629 --> 00:05:46,086
Suddenly there was a loud crashing sound from back by the fence.

74
00:05:46,093 --> 00:05:49,598
A couple of lights in nearby houses blinked on.

75
00:05:49,599 --> 00:05:52,420
The boy sat bolt upright in bed.

76
00:05:52,421 --> 00:06:01,475
He stared directly at Ben and shrieked, "Mommy! Daddy! A ghost!"
